etoro trading platform quick tour

There isn't much to talk about etoro trading platform.Because lots of options are self-explanatory.I ll talk about few important ones in this tour.

Global Tader,Forex Trend,Forex Marathon options are just useless.Because you really can't predict anything in those options.To predict more accurately you need to use charts.I ll talk more about charts in etoro platform in this post.

so Let's stat with forex charts in etoro platform.
from now on I recommend you to use candlestick charts instead of line charts.Because in later lessons you ll lean about candlestick chart patterns.It will help you to predict future price movements.
